1717 King George (Dump) Half Penny

[GoingDown]

Found in the front yard of a lovely 1700's home here in the Mid-Hudson Valley of New York State. Enjoy! And thanks to Earthworks for the pics and measurements (and sorry he had to stay home with the "guys" to watch the NY Jets play instead of diggin with his bro!)

PS ... the last pic is one of the same coin in much better condition from another webpost.

May check to get it professionally cleaned and preserved. Awesome! I also like the green on its head. Adds color.
